The Secretariat of the new Legislative Assembly was opened in Chennai on 13th March. It is the first section of the new Tamil Nadu government complex to be built. The solemn opening ceremony of the building, which is two-thirds complete, took place in the presence of Indian Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh, Sonia Gandhi (chairwoman of the governing UPA coalition), Kalaignar M. Karunanidhi (Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu) and numerous guests from the political and social spheres.

The Assembly building is part of a new government complex being built in Chennai (formerly Madras), which will comprise four buildings when complete - the Assembly, an administrative building, a guesthouse and a convention hall. The whole government complex is expected to be complete in 2014.
